Anthurium warocqueanum, commonly known as the Queen Anthurium, was not discovered by a single individual, but rather its discovery is attributed to the efforts of various botanists and plant collectors over time. The species was first described by the Belgian botanist Émile Auguste Joseph De Wildeman in 1908. Émile De Wildeman was known for his work on African flora, and he named the plant after the horticulturist and plant collector Gustave Warocqué.

It’s important to note that the process of discovering and describing a plant species often involves multiple contributors, including those who may have collected specimens in the wild, those who studied and classified the plant, and those who formally described and named it. In the case of Anthurium warocqueanum, the combined efforts of these individuals contributed to its recognition and classification as a distinct species.
